Why does my 2yr old have grey hair?

Question

i have a 2yr old that has a few grey hair i thought that you got then as you got older. is there something wrong with him

Answer 1

It could very well be his birth mark.

Answer 2

Girl, that's a good question. First I discovered my 8 year old has one right at the top of his head. At first I was a little concerned about him aging too fast. Now we just laugh it off. I just think it's because he is a very wise little guy for his age. Then just today, I discovered that my 3 year old has one too. He has a different dad from his brother. So I figured that it had to have come from my gene pool. I don't think I have any greys, but how would I know? I'm always dying my hair...lol. But what I would say is just use it as a conversation piece. You'd be amazed at all the different reactions and inputs you will get as to why your son has grey hairs. Take care!

Answer 3

i've known many kids with patches of grey who are perfectly healthy, including my niece...that being said, childhood grey can also indicate a vitamin deficiency (B12) and other illness so I would ask your doctor just to be sure.  Most times I think it is just a hereditary trait.

Answer 4

He's special.  It may go away.

Answer 5

no, it's normal. sometimes kids just get em younger. my brother just has a patch of white hair on his head. he's had it since he was about 5 and he's 20 now... lol. girls think it's cute.

Answer 6

It's natural. My little brother got it after the age of 3 or 4. It could be leading to stress or constipated times.

Answer 7

no some people get them while they are young!

Answer 8

lol its normal...

ihave a blonde/brunette colored hair since i was a baby

and i still have it
